Fufa distances itself from the formation of Association of Sports Federations

The Federation of Uganda Football Associations (Fufa) has distanced itself from the formation of the Association of Sports Federations (ASF).

Although the Ugandan FA confirmed it sent a representative to the meeting of National Sports Federations at Kati-Kati Restaurant on Thursday and following a report that was made to the Executive Committee, it has decided to disassociate itself with the newly-formed body.

“However, in synergy with other stakeholders, Fufa will continue to advocate for more attention to the entire sports industry in Uganda from the government and private sector through the National Council of Sports, Uganda Olympic Committee, Ministry of Education and Sports and the various relevant government institutions but not creating and being part of parallel bodies,” the federation stated.
